One of the most special moments in a parent’s life is cradling their newborn in their arms and watching a new life blossom. All too fast children are grown up and off living their own lives and it can feel like only a minute ago you were watching them take their first steps or holding them for the first time. What better way is there to mark these moments and truly capture the vulnerability and love shown than with one of Lladró’s parenthood figurines?
There are few things more precious than a mother’s love or a father’s devotion and to properly portray that love and devotion is no easy task. Lladró’s expert sculptors manage to beautifully communicate and express the unconditional love and tenderness between a parent and a child. Take the Essence of Life Family Figurine which perfectly exemplifies Lladró’s attention to detail and their understanding of how precious the first moments of a child’s life is. Lladró captures the essence of parenthood in a way that very few brands do, with a certain simplicity and openness that allows the moment to speak for itself.
Essence of Life Family Figurine notice the attention to detail particularly in the hands and face.
Paternal Protection Figurine
The desire to draw your child close and keep them safe and sound, to hold onto the small moments of peace and tenderness is a feeling many parents can relate to. Pictures can fade, age or be easily damaged but part of the beauty of porcelain is that it will last for as long as it is well looked after and it will not fade in the sun over time.
